Have a 'Crazy' B'day, Barbara!!!


Tomorrow, May 20th, is Barbara's birthday, so this week she challenged the Crazy4Challenges DT to make birthday cards.  Before we get to my description,  I want to be sure to wish Barbara a happy birthday.  I hope that she has her best ever.....full of fun, surprises, and some tasty treats all enjoyed with family and friends.  Enjoy, Barb!!!

I have been itching to use this new SU stamp set and die set since I bought them a bit ago.  (There is just never enough stamping time, is there????).  I just love the results.  I must say that this card just warms my heart........I am so happy with the results.  I used an embossing folder on the background, colored the image with my Copics,  I die cut my ferns with dies from Memory Box and Marianne.  I added Zia pearl flourishes along with a bow using SU ribbon.  I used a MS deep border punch to make my lacy panel and an SU oval punch for my sentiment. The sentiment is an unmarked unmounted stamp.

I am sure we are all going to enjoy viewing the cards made by the rest of this divine team.  So come along with me to the Crazies Blog to check them out.  I am sure we will be dazzled.
